[comp.sys.next] Fortran compiler vendor and pricing needed

davison@menudo.uh.edu (Dan Davison) (09/16/90)

I have been unsuccessful in getting our local "Campus NeXT
Representative" or the campus NeXT sales staff (this does not include
the Houston NeXT salecritters)  to provide this information, so I ask
wiser folk...

Could someone provide me with, point me at, or generally inform me as
to what Fortran compilers are available for the NeXT?  I know about
the Absoft compiler and its insane pricing, but 'd like to think that
there are other, more reasonable options available.

Addresses and prices, hints on where to look in the FTP archives, and
anything else would be muchly appreciated!

I believe that Bellcore provides a freely available and thoroughly
tested FORTRAN to C translator which may be just about all you need.
It should be available for anonymous FTP but I got a copy by some
roundabout method.
